As I’ve mentioned previously I have been diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer. The amount of love and support I’ve received from the docs and patients is overwhelming. In the past I didn’t comprehend the connection and comradery cancer patients have for one another. Man do I know now! God bless all of you! Regardless of the outcome with my cancer I will always support this group and EVERY individual in it." -KC, New York"I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in October 2020 and had a 6 hour bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction surgery. I have been on Lynparza after BRCA1 testing (HER2 negative) since I posted here back in February 2022. I have been having quarterly scans. My cancer is stable! Docs here on Ask-A-Doc really saved me!
